Daylia:

In my lexicon, as in that of most English-speakers for the last thousand years, the term "Man", especially when capitalized, refers to the bipedal human species, which like most mammalian species has two genders in it.   There is also a second definition, of course, referring to the subset with the dangly bits, but that isn't the definition I was referring to, which is clear from context, I think.
Thanks for that link -- I expect that Goddess' name was pronounced "Deekeh" or perhaps even "Theekeh" in the original tongue, but I had not been aware of her before!
